Why does post image now insert a thumbnail and not a full blown picture? What was changed?
 But what a pain on a mobile device the insert image. So slow and gave issues. Thanks for reinstating the postimage.

With the insert image or add image to post button. The link it gives you is where the picture gets placed.

You can try Dan style and have DDF proofread

Not on DDF, AFAIK. Probably best to do it in Word or something, though adding images is harder then.

Or post segments as you go along. Keeps people interested.

You can send yourself PMs. You would need to copy/paste from a post draft for the pictures.
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

Those are both great ideas.

But wouldn't a separate tab which you keep open, do the trick?

With no way to save it? Too much of a risk of accidentally closing the tab, IMHO.

Especially if OP is still on his trip, and doing it from a phone or laptop which he may have to turn off sometimes.

True, there is no way to save it. But on many phones/computers (probably only laptops), the tab will stay open even if you were to close the device.

But yes, (especially that it will be many days worth of work), I wouldn't want to trust it.

The tab might stay opened but your work might be gone when you turn it back on.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.
